Meet My New Studio Assistant!

I got a surprise visit this morning! I got to the studio early and was planning on getting my Christmas decorations up when I had an unexpected guest show up.

Full of apologies for being late, she introduced herself as Nona Christmas, or as she said, “Nona C, but my friends call me Nona for short!” And short she is. Including her hat, Nona stands about a foot tall. When I asked what did she mean by being late, this is the story she told me, “I was supposed to be here yesterday. But I got distracted by the candy shop just a few doors down. Do you have any idea how amazing that place is? We’ve heard about Widman’s Candy at the North Pole, and I couldn’t believe my luck in getting chosen to go to your town. There are SOOOO many wonderful candies and chocolates there. It took me this long to figure out what I wanted!” I told her I understood and we munched on some chippers and chocolate while we visited. Now it’s time to get that tree set up!

Nona is going to be staying at the studio with me this month. I can’t wait to get to know her better and share her adventures with everyone! I think she’ll be a fun assistant. #NonaStudioElf
